FAQ
What temperature should I use?
For the best results, use our Laundry Washing Powder in warm to hot water. Heat acts as a natural sanitiser and activates the oxygen power within the sodium percarbonate, ensuring that your clothes not only come out clean but also free from harmful bacteria.
How much do I use?
Tailor the amount of Laundry Washing Powder based on your load size. For a small load, approx. 1-2 tablespoons (30-40g) are recommended. When dealing with larger loads, consider adding an extra tablespoon for optimal cleaning power.
Can I use this for handwashing delicates and wool?
Even though this is handmade, it is powerful and not recommended on wool or on delicate items. But we have a solution for you, visit our DIY Recipe Hub for how to handle the more delicate items.
Should I use fabric softener?
We absolutely recommend using fabric softener – but not the toxic slimy store-bought type! Simply use citric acid or vinegar in your rinse cycle along with some essential oils if you desire.
This acidic rinse neutralises any left over soap residue that remains on clothes during the wash which causes it to be stiff. This way your clothes and towels come out soft and fresh.
Is this suitable for sensitive skin?
We can never suggest what is the best thing for your body, however with minimal ingredients and fragrance-free formula our customers have reported that it works great for their sensitivities.
Is this septic safe?
It sure is! However be wary for greywater as these are alkali ingredients and we can't say with certainty that it wont harm your plants or greenery.
Can I use in cold water wash?
You can try! However, it is not recommended with our laundry powder as it needs heat to best dilute the ingredients and most importantly activate the crystal clear percarbonate.
Normal cold wash powders are full of chemicals to counteract hot water like bleach activators, while cold washing is vital for some (and we understand) its not our recommended way.
